Let's look at the verb 'sing'. Past tense - sang Past participle - sung Present tense - sing/sings Present participle - singing Future tense - will sing
It tells us at what time an event is occurring/is going to occur/has already occurred.
There is:present simple -- I like ice cream -- has one verb (like) in the present tense.andpresent progressive -- I am eating ice cream -- has two verbs, a be verb (am) this tells us the sentence is present and a present participle (eating).So present and present progressive are not the same.
The present simple tense of the verb "provide" is "provides" for he/she/it and "provide" for all other subjects. For example, "He provides us with excellent service" or "They provide valuable feedback."
will talk / going to talk. I will talk to the students this afternoon. The teacher is going to talk to us a bout the exams.
No, the correct sentence would be: "He told us they were going to do it." This is because the reporting verb "told" is in the past tense, so the verb "are" should be transformed to the past tense "were" as well.
The present perfect tense of advise is:I/You/We/They and plural noun subject have advised.They have advised us to sell our shares. The teachers have advised us to study hard.He/She/It and singular noun subjects has advised.He has advised me to buy a new computer. The teacher has advised me to study hard.
Present perfect is formed with - have/has + past participle.The past participle proctor is proctored. So present perfect is have/has proctored.He has proctored us before.
Time!'I was running' (past continuous) tells us that the action was in the past and has finished.'I am running' (present continuous) tells us that the action started at some time in the past and is still continuing at the present time.
will tell -- I will tell your mother you said that be + going to tell -- The teacher is going to tell us the results tomorrow be + telling -- The headmaster is telling us his life story next week
present continuous/progressive is formed with - be verb + present participle ie.am / is / are talking.I am talking to him later.She is talking to him now.They are talking to us at 7:30 to night.
